It's snowy as all hell here today. I am likely to hope that my Amazon pre-order comes through for me, and I'll get it that way. If not, it's off to the magical basement of eBay.

I ordered on December 28th, I hope that was sufficient in booking ahead of time.

My rosalinas are being held hostage by usps and I cannot liberate them until tomorrow.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I'm curious. Is Rosalina a fan favourite character or is this more of a completest thing? It's an honest question as I never thought she was that popular.

I think there's a following, plus it being a retailer exclusive has people's attentions heightened if they are a completist, since there's three different exclusives. I think Lucario and Meta Knight are also sought after by collectors, in that same vein.

I'm assuming you guys are waiting on JP or EUR Rosalinas? She's the only NA Amiibo I'm struggling to get.

JP. I did not even bother with the US. I am after all the Zelda and Mushroom Kingdom amiibos and my step daughter loves rosalina.

Fortunately, with the yen being so weak lately...

Yeah, I get the hype behind the Lucario and Meta Knight exclusives as those guys are more prominent in their respective game series. I guess I always thought of Rosalina as a tertiary character with little to no following. I suppose the recent Smash entries and Target exclusives have proved me wrong. :)

I'm getting kinda bored with the Amiibo madness at this point. I think I'll scoop up my Mega Man preorder and be done with it, at least for now. :wink:

I'm not crazy about collecting them all. Target also had toon link and bowser but I didn't get those because of my preorder at amazon. Really hoping I don't get screwed over on sonic and mega man. Though I really think I want another mega man to keep with my mega man collection.

I do have the Mario party 10 limited and the Mario series amiibos on preorder at amazon.

Fedex just dropped of my Lucario from ToysRUs. Hopefully the box isn't mauled.
